Tucked away in the beautiful Kamberg Valley amidst the Drakensberg Mountains in KwaZulu-Natal, Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse offers the ultimate in peace and tranquility.
Hidden away in the scenic Kamberg Valley and a stone's throw away to Giant's Castle Nature- the one and only Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse!
Rooms at Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse have gorgeous views of the moody Drakensberg Mountains. Decor is cosily rustic and on chilly mornings guests snuggle under crisp cotton sheets and mohair blankets whilst sipping on aromatic coffee!
Cleopatra Mountain Farmhouse believes in fine fair cooking using the freshest local produce. Breakfasts are sumptuous while the warm bread and local cheese selection starts off a perfect afternoon. The daily changing dinner menu incorporates farm fresh ingredients in an indulgent six-course affair created by chef Richard Poynton- the best sauce maker in town!
The underground cellar awaits your finest pick in adding to your delectable meal and the farmhouse dining room is always warm with animated conversation and complimentary Port; a comfy lounge with a roaring fire is equally inviting and a great way to end the day.
Leisure activities available include swimming, walking, horse riding and hiking in the Drakensberg. Guests can also take a day trip to the Kamberg Nature Reserve where historic San rock art caves have recently been opened to the public. The nearby Natal Midlands Meander is a famous craft route with many stops offering a wide range of gifts, curios and local produce.
Lise's thoughts on Cleopatra:
"Cleopatra is possibly the most romantic guest house in South Africa. And with the kind of food that Richard serves, don't expect to be able to fit into your pants by the time you leave!"
